stillingsbetegnelse: Scientific Coordinator

jobbeskrivelse:

In connection with our DNRF and Villum Center of Excellence 'IDUN - Center for Intelligent Drug Delivery and Sensing Using Microcontainers and Nanomechanics', we are looking for a skilled and experienced scientific coordinator, who will play a crucial role in running the center.

At IDUN, we design, realize and characterize micrometer-sized containers for the oral administration of drugs, with the vision of using them in e.g., peptic ulcer care and insulin delivery. In addition, we have many activities in nanomechanical sensors and apply these in studies of cells and single molecules. The center is based on a close collaboration between DTU and the University of Copenhagen, and our activities cover areas such as microfabrication and in-vivo experiments.

The job

You will work closely with the center director, taking care of key issues related to governance, project management, communication and administration. As our scientific coordinator, you will need to thrive in an international, multidisciplinary and highly ambitious team.

You will be part of the Nanoprobes research group and will interact with all of the group's members, as well as all members of IDUN. You will also collaborate closely with our administrative and faninacial support team at DTU Health Tech. It is crucial that you have a thorough understanding of the nature of research and scientific processes. The position will give you extensive experience and knowledge within research coordination and organization.

Primary areas of responsibility

• Coordinating and updating agreed research plans
• Developing and implementing visual tools for project management
• Governance (scientific reporting, administration, controlling and reporting of the Center finances, standard processes and procedures)
• Communication, internal and external, including websites and social media
• Facilitating meetings and workshops (planning, retrospectives)
• Coordination with on-going research projects within the Nanoprobes group
• Overview of future funding possibilities and co-writer of applications
• Administration (contact to the Danish National Research Foundation, meeting/seminar/travel arrangements, travel expense management, updating document management systems (DTU DOC, Orbit), as well as personnel lists)
• Group development (arrange for courses, external speakers, workshops and seminars)

Our expectations of you

We are looking for someone with a research background in a field related to IDUN. The ideal candidate has a PhD degree in nanoscience or physiology, and has experience in several or all of the aspects mentioned above.

You have excellent communication and people skills and are a true team player. You are a trained facilitator and thrive in managing meetings, workshops and seminars. You are excited by research and the generation of new knowledge and enjoy seeking structure in complex settings. You are now more interested in pursuing a coordinator job than a research position. You are good at handling administrative tasks and have good skills in written English. Furthermore, you have strong deadline management skills, and you have a good grasp of relevant IT tools.

What we offer in return

We offer an interesting and challenging job in an international atmosphere with a focus on research, teaching and innovation. We place emphasis on excellence and a high level of professionalism. Skills development is an integral part of our organization. We offer a dynamic, supportive and social work environment with flexibility in the position. In the area of health technology, DTU is one of the leading research and education institutions in Europe. Within IDUN, our ambition is to be world-leading - come and join us in this exciting endeavour.

Salary and appointment terms

The appointment will be based on the collective agreement with the Confederation of Professional Associations. The allowance will be agreed upon with the relevant union.

The workplace is DTU Lyngby Campus.
